Close to Chalok Bay, Tao Tong is a small, shallow site perfect for slow, easy dives.

Its coral bommies and sandy patches are a hotspot for macro, with nudibranchs, pipefish, shrimps, and gobies hiding among the rocks. Porcupine pufferfish and stingrays are often seen resting in the sand, and macro lovers will find plenty to photograph.

It’s one of the best spots on Koh Tao for muck diving and close-up encounters.
